The origin of the strange numbering scheme that is common to many of the boards is lost in history but it appears that the distinctive arrangement of the numbers was invented sometime in the late 19th century, probably in the North of England. It isn't known why the numbers are placed as they are but it it is clear that some effort has been taken to ensure that consecutive numbers are mostly placed well away from each other.

incongru is right, its done so that u do not have a high chance of getting high numbers if u miss the one u after, for example if u miss 20 u dnt hit 19

The high numbers always have low numbers adjacent to them , and the odd and evens are mixed up, so that you are penalised to the max if you narrowly miss the area you are aiming for ( i think)
